Happiest Minds Technologies, a Bengaluru-based tech firm promoted by industry veteran Ashok Soota on Tuesday (February 10, 2026) informed the media it has 32 Generative AI & Agentic AI use cases that have successfully moved beyond prototypes.
“Many of these use cases were scaling into full projects with the potential to be replicated across dozens of accounts in multiple verticals,’’ said Sridhar Mantha, CEO of Generative AI Business Services (GBS), Happiest Minds.
Elaborating on the company’s increased focus on AI, Mr, Soota, Chairman and Chief Mentor of Happiest Minds said, the firm has launched an AI First approach as part of its strategic transformation and various programmes taken up under it would define how Happiest Minds would build, deliver, and scale value in an AI-driven world.
According to him, the company has already made considerable progress across several of these programmes, and the firm expected this momentum to accelerate the growth of Happiest Minds. This was clearly visible in how AI was being operationalised across the company and its clients, he said.
Mr. Soota further said, “I would like to take cognisance of a recent AI-related announcement that has created some turbulence in global markets for software companies. I want to assert that this development represents an opportunity, not a threat, for Happiest Minds and, we believe, for other IT services companies as well.”
Mr. Mantha further said, Happiest Minds’ AI First approach covered four areas: building advanced AI solutions, AI‑native software development, IT services management and cybersecurity.
Happiest Minds was delivering AI assistants that go beyond chatbots, domain‑specific copilots embedded in workflows, and intelligent search tools that boost productivity, he claimed.
Happiest Minds also posted its third quarter net profit of ₹40.30 crore, a 19.56% drop compared to ₹50.10 crore in the corresponding quarter a year ago. The drop profit was due to the implementation of the new Labour Codes. The other unallocable expenses included ₹22.03 crore towards the impact of Labour Codes for the quarter, the firm said. However, driven by strong deal closures, its revenue stood ₹587 crore, a 10.69% year-on-year growth over last year’s ₹530.81 crore.
